4. Lisk (LSK) (29)Lisk (LSK) is an open-source cryptocurrency and decentralised application platform, written in JavaScript. It was formally launched in May 2016 after a highly successful Initial Coin Offering (ICO, an early opportunity to purchase the new cryptocurrency) which raised over US$5 million. The Lisk network operates using a Delegated-Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism which is secured by 101 democratically elected delegates. Another interesting component of Lisk is its decentralised, JavaScript-based application platform which allows the deployment, distribution and monetisation of decentralized applications and custom blockchains (also called "sidechains") onto the Lisk blockchain. Original announcement.

7. Decred (DCR) (34)Decred (DCR) is a decentralised, open-source cryptocurrency launched in February 2016 by a group of former Bitcoin developers. The new project aimed to address concerns over the increasing centralization of power in Bitcoin and a growing conflict of interest between the user community and those funding the Bitcoin project. On the technical front, Decred is a hybrid proof-of-work/proof-of-stake (PoW/PoS) cryptocurrency which can be both mined (using the BLAKE-256 hashing algorithm) and staked. The project offers a choice between a graphical web-based wallet and a command-line client for all popular operating systems, including the BSDs. Original announcement.

9. IOTA (IOT) (53)IOTA (IOT) is an open-source cryptocurrency created for the project of the same name, a project attempting to build a distributed ledger for the Internet of Things. Unlike most other cryptocurrencies, which use blockchains to record transactions, IOTA has developed a new distributed ledger architecture called "Tangle" which introduces a blockchainless way of reaching consensus in a decentralised peer-to-peer system. IOTA's software is able to process transaction without any fees, thus providing a perfect platform for micropayments. Its JavaScript-based wallet client is designed to be as simple and lightweight as possible. Original announcement

10. Komodo (KMD) (57)Komodo (KMD) is a decentralised, open-source cryptocurrency launched in September 2016. It has evolved from BitcoinDark (BTCD) and is developed by the same developer ("jl777"), but the underlying software was forked from Zcash and the new cryptocurrency runs on the SuperNET platform, using SuperNET's infrastructure and software applications. Focusing on privacy and anonymity of transactions, Komodo deploys a "delayed proof-of-work" (dPoW) consensus mechanism which relies on pre-voted notary nodes and which is secured by the Bitcoin (BTC) network. It uses Zcash's "zero knowledge proof" to (optionally) make transactions anonymous and untraceable. Initial announcement.

11. GoldBlocks (GB) (71)GoldBlocks (GB) is a decentralised, open-source cryptocurrency forked from BlackCoin in May 2016. It's a hybrid proof-of-work/proof-of-stake (PoW/PoS) coin which can be either "mined" by a computer or "minted" through a process called "staking". The PoW part of the coin uses the X11 hashing algorithm (11 rounds of scientific hashing functions that include blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein, luffa, cubehash, shavite, simd and echo) with a 60-second block time and a total coin supply of 24.7 million. The coin's PoS method offers a 10% annual interest on staked coins, with the total supply capped at 50 million coins. Original announcement.

12. Europecoin (ERC) (89)Europecoin (ERC) is a decentralised, open-source cryptocurrency forked from Novacoin in May 2014. After two weeks of mining which generated some 137 million coins, Europecoin became a pure proof-of-stake cryptocurrency with a variable interest (from 2.5% to 15% per year) depending on the maturity of the coins held. A total of 1% of the coins were pre-mined. In July 2016, the coin was relaunched under a new development team and as a proof-of-work cryptocurrency based on Bitcoin. Original announcement.

13. Breakout Coin (BRK) (99)Breakout Coin (BRK) is a product of Breakout Gaming which is a new, globally accessible online gaming entertainment company that plans to provide poker, sports wagering, casino games, fantasy sports, and other popular gaming options. The original currency, Breakout Coin, was later integrated into a unique multi-currency wallet system called "Breakout Chain". While Breakout Coin (BRK) remains the principal currency for Breakout Gaming, there are also Breakout Stake (BRX) and Sister Coin (SIS) which serve to secure the ledger through a combined proof-of-stake (PoS) and proof-of-work (PoW) model. The PoS system uses Breakout Stake as the stake, minting Breakout Coin. As such, the Breakout Stake money supply will never increase, whereas the Breakout Coin money supply increases at a rate of approximately 5% per year. Breakout Chain’s PoW system produces Sister Coin as an incentive to miners. Original announcement.
